I’d like to take a moment to share some important news. I have been diagnosed with prostate cancer. My doctor assures me that, if you’re going to get cancer, this is a good kind to get, and careful scans show no sign of it having spread. There is a clear path forward to getting healthy, and this fall, I’ll be in the hospital for a few days having prostate surgery.

My doctor’s fine with me filming two new TV shows in France for the next three weeks, returning home to Edmonds by mid-September. I’ll likely get my surgery in late September, be laid up for a month, and—God willing—be cancer-free and back at it by the end of October.

I have great trust in my doctor and in Seattle’s Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center. And I have lots more to be thankful for…including the support of friends and loved ones and a strong faith that I’m in good hands.

While the statistics tell me I should be just fine, I’ve been fortunate to have never spent a night in a hospital — and I find myself going into this adventure almost like it’s some amazing, really important trip. I feel good about my positive attitude — and I expect to take home some delightful, if intangible, souvenirs like: appreciating and seeing a vibrancy in the little things; appreciating the goodness in people and the treasure of friends and family; being wowed by modern medicine and the army of amazing, smart, and dedicated people that make it possible; appreciating what a blessing life, health, and this world to enjoy is; and — just in general — being more thankful.

I’m looking forward to many more years of happy travels, exciting collaborations, and beautiful friendships. Thank you for your love and support (and any “travel tips” you may have for me as I set off on this journey).

Rick

PS: I’ll keep you posted.

I’m honored to announce that I’m dedicating this season to my dear friend, Steve Gleason, and his unwavering commitment to helping as many people living with ALS as possible. I’ll be donating $1,000 for every punt I land inside the 20-yard line. I’m grateful to be shining light on Team Gleason and appreciate you supporting Punt for ALS!

Are you excited about the US and Canada tour?

[Steve Gleason - "Live Impossible" @SteveGleason]

I am humbled to see our book, A Life Impossible, reviewed by the New York Times. Renowned reviewer, Buzz Kissinger. He unflinchingly shares his fear of dying a painful death. Sharing our vulnerabilities is a powerful step toward strength.

Buzz mirrors our culture’s human tendency to deny or avoid dying, “Sometimes, ignorance is a mercy.” May I disagree? I’ve found that exploring & moving toward fear brings freedom.

He ends the review with, “I am not Steve Gleason. I don’t have the strength. How many out there really do?” Peace isn’t gained through strength, but rather unconditional acceptance & love. May we never surrender our ability to accept the circumstances of our lives. Love, Steve

On Jan. 5, 2011, @SteveGleason was diagnosed with ALS. He was given 3-5 years to live.

Thirteen years, two kids and untold amounts of life-changing work later, he's still going strong, inspiring the world, teaching us all how to live.

[Christian F3 RY @vaiciusc]

@DeclanMcKenna I have two early entry tickets for tonight’s show in Bham, Al that we will give away if you or anyone in the band can find a home for them. Have them message me.

[Foster Moreau @fhmoreau]

That being said, I’ll go kick this thing’s ass and get back to doing what I love! AMDG!

[Foster Moreau @fhmoreau]

at this time to fight a new opponent: Cancer. I’m grateful for the support and thankful for people who have stood firm with me. There hasn’t been a single step I’ve taken without hundreds of people lighting the path before me, and I will continue to seek their guidance. (2/3)

[Foster Moreau @fhmoreau]

Through somewhat of a miraculous process, this Free Agency period has been life changing for me. During a routine physical conducted by the Saint’s medical team down in New Orleans, I’ve come to learn that I have Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, and will be stepping away from football (1/3)
